Walk & Live in the Spirit

 “And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.”

‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭KJV‬

He said, “Don’t worry about it—there are more on our side than on their side.” Then Elisha prayed, “O God, open his eyes and let him see.” The eyes of the young man were opened and he saw. A wonder! The whole mountainside full of horses and chariots of fire surrounding Elisha!  There is the whole spiritual realm around about us and for the lovers of Christ, every spiritual blessing in heavenly places is ours.  Through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus our Lord, the mighty Holy Spirit has come to dwell in us.  So if we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.  For as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. Thank You Holy Spirit. Amen!

Pursuing the Promises of God

 “And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭10‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Then I saw another extremely powerful messenger coming out of heaven, robed in a cloud. There was a halo over his head like a rainbow; his face shined bright like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire.  This super strong celestial messenger descends out of the heavenly realm clothed in a cloud, his head crowned in a rainbow, his face shining like the sun and his legs as pillars of fire.  The rainbow immediately reminds us of the promise of God to Noah, “I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.”  Jesus is the fulfilment of every promise.  Let’s learn to be steadfast in pursuing the promises of God, while we are on earth awaiting the Lord Jesus Christ.  For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.  Amen!

God has Chosen You to Worship Him

 “And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.”

‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭5‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Naaman, the general of the king of Aram’s army, then went back to the Holy Man, Elisha, he and his entourage, stood before him, and said, “I now know beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is no God anywhere on earth other than the God of Israel. In gratitude let me give you a gift.”  Naaman had not grown up in Israel where he had learned what Yahweh says, heaven’s Creator, Who alone is God. He created the earth, shaped it, and established it all by Himself. He made it fit and orderly and beautiful for its inhabitants.  *He says: “I Am Yahweh, and there is no other god.”*  God chooses even the gentiles to show His power.  Jesus said, “have you not considered that the prophet Elisha healed only Naaman, the Syrian, rather than one of the many Jewish lepers living in the land?”  It was a young servant maid who told Naaman’s wife about Elisha.  God chooses even the weak and the meek for His power to be manifest.  Let’s not be backward in allowing God to use us to manifest God’s power to a world desperate to know the true and living God.  Idols are nothing in this world, there is no other God but One.  Through Christ He has chosen you to worship Him.  Amen!
